The Crawfish Boxes Jun 29, 2022
Brad Penner-USA TODAY Sports The Astros have outscored the Mets 24-6 in their last two series! If you like baseball games with loads of good plays, good pitching, and few runs, this one was your kind of game. On Wednesday, the Astros and Mets played a great contest in which Houston came out with the win 2-0 thanks to a ninth-inning home run by catcher Jason Castro. Just like it happened earlier in June, the ‘Stros swept the Metropolitans in a two-game series. From the beginning to the end, it was a pitching duel between Justin Verlander and Taijuan Walker, both went...

Photo by Mike Stobe/ Tucker’s three-run home run backs up Verlander’s solid pitching performance to tie the series. A week ago, Justin Verlander had a rough outing against the White Sox. But on Friday, he was on top of his game to dominate the Yankees at Yankee Stadium with seven strong innings and guide the Astros to a 3-1 victory. Kyle Tucker drove in the Astros’ three runs with a three-run home run against starter Luis Severino, who was clearly outpitched by veteran Verlander. In order to pick his ninth win of the campaign (9-3), Verlander allowed only four...

Kyle Tucker is often the overlooked man in this monstrous lineup, but after making a spring-loaded jumping catch at the wall on Thursday and pumping a critical home run on Friday, he is making sure Yankee fans will remember his name.

Set Number: X162984 TK1 Two old Yankees and Astros foes square off on a Friday night in the Bronx. What could the Yankees possibly do to follow up the thrill of last night’s victory? They had been hitless in the first until Aaron Hicks delivered a stunning three-run homer to tie the game in the bottom of the ninth, and on the eve of earning himself a $19 million payday for 2022, Aaron Judge walked it off with a 3-0 missile into the left-field corner. Give the Yankees’ constant battles against the Astros since 2015, that had to feel it good. One of the men who...

Thomas Shea-USA TODAY Sports Justin Verlander is the perfect pitcher to get the Astros back on track after last night’s heartbreak loss. His mound opponent is Luis Severino. Here are the lineups.
The Crawfish Boxes Jun 18, 2022
Thomas Shea-USA TODAY Sports The Houston Astros managed just three base hits against Johnny Cueto and the Chicago bullpen. With 36,747 in the house at Minute Maid Park, the Houston Astros got blanked by the Chicago White Sox, 7-0. Since starting to write over here at Crawfish Boxes, I’ve been tasked with the Saturday recaps. Despite winning roughly sixty percent of the time, it seems the Astros are unable to take the gold home during the games in which I’m assigned with the game capsule. In preparation for this article, I noticed that resident ace Justin Verlander...

Photo by Bob Levey/ José Altuve delivered a late, three-run home run to lift the Astros with help of another Jeremy Peña bomb and a Justin Verlander masterful outing. On Sunday afternoon, José Altuve had a pretty good game offensively to propel the Astros 9-4 over the Marlins and avoid being swept. Altuve’s effort –which included a three-run homer in the eighth— combined with good contributions from rookie Jeremy Peña and living legend Justin Verlander to give the Astros their first win since Tuesday (lost three in a row). The game presented itself as an...

Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports Verlander’s 12 K’s, Alvarez two-run bomb ensure Astros win. The old man on the hill and the youth movement in the batter’s box ensured the Astros’ 4-1 win over Seattle tonight. Justin Verlander allowed only one run in seven innings pitched, giving the bullpen a much-needed rest. Meanwhile, Jeremey Pena had a game-saving defensive play, two hits, and the go-ahead RBI, while Yordan Alvarez put the game out of reach with a two-run blast in the eighth inning. The Astros and Mariners battled to a scoreless tie until the fourth inning...
